After getting ashore and riding a horse, Jiang Lie finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"This trip is worth it. I made a magic bracelet for nothing." Seeing that there was no one around, Jiang Lie took out the old turtle and placed it on the horse's back.

The old turtle stretched out his head and joked: "I'm afraid it's not just a bracelet, but I'm afraid I'll make an extra wife."

Jiang Lie patted the turtle shell: "What are you saying? Why did you make an extra wife? Where did it come out?"

The old guitar smiled and said, "I can hear it clearly. The floating-fin general was reluctant to leave you in the end. Why did you think she could give you the scale jade bracelet? Just your unrigorous nonsense? Look, the floating-fin general is obsessed with you and has developed feelings for you!"

Jiang Lie smiled weakly and said, "It's her business that she wants to have feelings for, it has nothing to do with me. How could I have a little wife?"

"Okay, okay, I'm serious." Lao Gui said seriously, "The Dragon Clan sent this Long Wei to win people's hearts. It's easy to get the country, but it's hard to gather people's hearts. It can be seen that the Dragon Clan really hopes to get you, a fire-controller who has never been seen in a century. If you do a good job, just fight with her and you must not let the Dragon Clan succeed."

Jiang Lie nodded: "I understand, I know. If the Dragon Clan wants to give me the benefits and bribe me, I will accept it if possible, but I will definitely not help them."

The old turtle chuckled: "You are so smart!"

Without further ado, Jiang Lie rode his horse and rushed straight to Shenliu City.

After saying that as soon as Jiang Lie returned to Jiang Mansion, he held the scale jade bracelet in one hand and the Mie Yang axe in the other. He gently touched the handle of the axe and the bracelet. With a strange light, Mie Yang axe disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Lie exclaimed and patted the scale jade bracelet with his hand. The scale jade bracelet emitted another strange light, and a small piece of axe handle was exposed. He grabbed the axe handle and pulled it out gently, and a complete Mieyang axe was pulled out.

With the scale jade bracelet, Jiang Lie was able to carry Mie Yang Axe with him. He was very happy, so he put Mie Yang Axe into the scale jade bracelet and put the scale jade bracelet in his pocket.

The next day, Jiang Lie went to the Ministry of Works to find Xin Shiyi and proposed to him his plan to rebuild Jiangjiazhuang.

Xin Shiyi was extremely enthusiastic and said that he would help Jiang Lie arrange personnel, but it only took a certain amount of time and Jiang Lie needed to wait patiently for the news.

...

Time flies, and time flies. The following spring, Yuan Guocai held a ceremony to ascense the throne and changed the reign of Shengfan, which was the first year of Shengfan.

As soon as Yuan Guocai ascended the throne, he carried out drastic reforms - abolishing the prime minister and undermining the commander of the Divine Lion Army, and appointed Yang Nengyan as the chief of the palace, and granted him the power to participate in politics.

Jiang Lie was very familiar with the abolition of the prime minister, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, had done it. The purpose was obvious, which was to strengthen the imperial power and strengthen the dictatorship of the monarch.

The commander of the Divine Lion Legion greatly weakened the military power held by Xu Youzhi. In other words, Xu Youzhi's position as the commander of the Divine Lion Legion was in fact lost. Without Yuan Guocai's order, he could not use the Divine Lion Legion. This is similar to releasing military power with a glass of wine. From then on, Yuan Guocai was the actual commander of the Divine Lion Legion, and Xu Youzhi was just a puppet without military power.

As for the emphasis on Yang Nengyan, this made Jiang Lie uneasy, because the emphasis on eunuchs is likely to lead to the destruction of the country. Not to mention that Jiang Liexiang disliked Yang Nengyan, Zhao Gao of the Qin Dynasty, the ten regular attendants of the Han Dynasty, and Wei Zhongxian of the Ming Dynasty, were all bloody lessons.

In Jiang Lie's impression, once the eunuch party can control the government, a dynasty will gradually demise.

However, Jiang Lie believed that Yuan Guocai was still commendable, which was to abolish the taboo of the emperor's name.

During Yuan Liaochen's reign, except for his brothers of the Liao generation, no one could use the words "Liao" and "Chen" in the entire Shenli Kingdom.

This kind of taboo is also a tradition since ancient times, and it has been the case in the entire bone-eroding continent.

Yuan Guocai's name is quite special, with the word "country". If his name needs to be avoided, the divine lion kingdom cannot be called the divine lion kingdom. Then the people of the whole country will lose their concept of family and country, so it is still very reasonable to cancel the taboo.

After changing to the emperor, Jiang Lie's Lion Flame Army was still the same as before, and there was no change.

That night, Jiang Lie finished his work in the Lion Flame Army and returned to Jiang Mansion exhausted. As soon as he entered the door, he ran into Yin Feng.

"Young Master Lie, a guest came to the mansion." Yin Feng said.

Jiang Lie asked, "Are you a guest?"

Yinfeng shook his head: "Not it, it's two."

Jiang Lie frowned and said, "Why are there one at a time and two at a time? Where did the guest come from and who are they?"

Yin Feng couldn't explain it for a moment, so he said, "In your house, crying to Sister Nan inside, you can go to your house and take a look."

Jiang Lie couldn't figure out what kind of guests could come to his house to cry to Yuan Nan'er.

When he walked to the door of the room, Jiang Lie knocked on the door: "Nan'er, I'm back."

Then, Yuan Nan'er opened the door and whispered in a frown: "Come in."

Jiang Lie whispered, "Yinfeng told me that there was a guest coming, who was it?"

"Concubine Lin, and her son." Yuan Nan'er said, then pulled Jiang Lie into the door and bolted the door.

"Master Jiang, you must save us, mother and son!"

Looking in the sound, Jiang Lie found that it was a simple and unpretentious young woman sitting at the table crying with a baby in her arms.

"Concubine Lin?" Jiang Lie walked to the woman and frowned and asked, "Are you Concubine Lin of the previous emperor?"

The woman nodded and sobbed, "Don't call me like that. I'm not a concubine anymore. My name is Lin Xiaohua, just call me my name. Jiang Dashui, please save me, only you can help me!"

Jiang Lie was confused for a moment, so he pulled up a chair and sat down: "If you have something to say, why are you wearing ordinary people's clothes and crying? What difficulties have you encountered? Tell me slowly, I'll listen carefully, I'll see if I can help you."

Yuan Nan'er also pulled a chair and sat down, sighed and said, "Xiaohua told me that she and the little prince were expelled from the palace by the emperor, and the emperor asked her to take the little prince back to her hometown alone."

Jiang Lie widened his eyes: "What's going on?"

So Yuan Nan'er told Jiang Lie about the causes and consequences that Lin Xiaohua said tonight.

It turned out that Lin Xiaohua admitted that she had an incompetence with Yuan Guocai during her reign of the late emperor. The child she was holding in her hand was Yuan Guocai's seed.

This did not surprise Jiang Lie, after all, he had expected it.

Once, Yuan Guocai told Lin Xiaohua confidently that when he ascended the throne, he would grant her the queen. Yuan Guocai, as Yuan Liaochen's son, was younger than Yuan Liaochen, more handsome than Yuan Liaochen, and good at using sweet words to coax people, so Lin Xiaohua was also attracted to Yuan Guocai and developed a very dependent relationship.

When Yuan Guocai ascended the throne this year, Lin Xiaohua thought she could become the queen, but Yuan Guocai only gave her the name of concubine and did not fulfill her promise.

Lin Xiaohua was untrustworthy because Yuan Guocai said something, so she had a fight with Yuan Guocai. In anger, Yuan Guocai gave Lin Xiaohua some money, forced her to dress up as a commoner, take her son away from Shenshi City, and go back to her hometown.
